How to Make Country Style Chili Sauce

  1. Halve and pit the peaches (or nectarines). Coarsely chop into ½-inch pieces.
  2. Peel and chop the tomatoes into ½-inch pieces (optional: skip peeling).
  3. Combine peaches/nectarines, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and garlic in a large saucepan.
  4. Stir in the vinegar, sugar, salt, ginger, allspice, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently.
  5. Reduce heat to medium, and boil gently uncovered, stirring occasionally until the peaches soften and the mixture slightly thickens (about 20-25 minutes).
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue to simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches a thick applesauce consistency with minimal liquid remaining (approximately 30-40 minutes).
  7. Remove from heat. Let cool completely before transferring to sterilized glass jars.
  8. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. For longer storage, process in a boiling water bath according to canning guidelines.
